as far as he wants- you never said the other end was tied to anything...

The rope will be the radius of your circle. Plug that into your formula for the circumference of a circle and you'll have your answer for how far he can go each time around.
But he can go around and around and around. So I guess it really depends on the stamina of the horse!!! So that might be a trick question.

I would have to say as far as he wants. I guessing it's only a problem if the rope is actually tied to something else besides the horse:)

Infinitely far. A horse can easily drag 50' of rope.

As far as it wants to. It doesn't say that the rope is tied to anything.

Depends on how much rope you use to tie off one end, and how big a loop you used around his neck.

Even if the horse is tied to a post, he can walk in a circle infinately - until he falls asleep, anyway.

Can you tell me the circumference of a circle with a 50 foot radius?
